Update time:

516 million miles donated so far or 21,500 round trip airline tickets.

Since $55 million for R&R was included in the recent spending bill, donated miles are now being used to fly familiy members of injured servicemen and servicewomen to various military hospitals to be with their loved ones. In addition, miles are still be used for troops on emergency leave from Iraq and Afghanistan.

Awerica West has joined the program. Continental has pulled out.

Anheuser-Busch donated 680 round trip tickets to start the miles for family members plan.
